The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has debunked reports suggesting that the party’s national chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, would be removed.

The APC said it was focused on the electoral victory of the party in the 2023 general election.

The party said this in a statement issued and made available to The Star on Wednesday by the APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka.

“The attention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to opposition-sponsored media reports on plots to remove the National Chairman of the party, Sen. (Dr.) Abdullahi Adamu.

“The reports are based on the imagination of its sponsors ostensibly unnerved by the remarkable achievements of Sen. Adamu since assuming office as the National Chairman.

“Our party and leaders are currently focused on important task of building a strong and vibrant electoral campaign ahead, and will not be distracted by boring chirps of idle speculators,” the party said.

The APC further accused the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of trying to derail the ruling party after the opposition “failed to tidy its folds”.

“The opposition PDP is quite welcome to continue to dissipate its energies on innuendoes and chasing after phantom plots in APC rather than concentrate on mending its broken and acrimonious house.

“The National Working Committee of our party stands united under Sen. Adamu’s leadership as National Chairman with the singular commitment to wining the next general election,” the APC added.
